On the first day of competition, No. 1 High School won the championship with an overwhelming advantage.
Then comes the second day's game "Group Ball Score".
The rules of "Ball Shooting" are similar to those of tennis, except that the serve is a machine, and the two players need to use magic to hit the ball to the other side's court to win by the number of times. And unlike tennis and badminton, which are one-on-one, the number of balls fired by the machine will gradually increase, with one ball added every 20 seconds, up to a maximum of nine balls.
Therefore, this game is about the controllability, accuracy and speed of magic. Whoever can use magic to control the most balls and hit them into the opponent's field to get points will be the winner.
And the ending is naturally obvious.
In front of Fang Zheng, no matter how hard the other players tried, none of the balls they hit even crossed the half court, let alone hit Fang Zheng's court. Instead, Fang Zheng waved his hand casually, and those balls seemed to disappear out of thin air, appearing directly in the other half of the court, then bouncing back, and then being hit out by Fang Zheng...
So it is reasonable that the number 100:0 will appear.
So on the second day's "Group Ball Score Competition", Fang Zheng and Nanakusa Mayumi won the championship again and swept the whole field.
The other schools could no longer sit still and went to the competition committee to protest. This time they were not protesting against Fang Zheng for cheating or anything, but asking the committee to ban Fang Zheng from participating in the rookie competition!
These schools had very good reasons. Even their own sophomores and juniors were beaten like dogs by Fang Zheng in the regular season. So wouldn't he be beating up his own freshmen in the rookie competition?! Is this reasonable?
This made the organizing committee of the competition very depressed. When they formulated the rules, they never thought that something like this would happen.
After all, a person's energy is limited. When the rules were formulated, it was impossible for any staff member to have imagined that there would be a perverted player like Fang Zheng.
But it is impossible to temporarily change the rules now, as this will only make people doubt the fairness of the competition. So, the staff had no choice but to ask Nanakusa Mayumi to persuade Fang Zheng - after all, if the contestant himself abstains, then there will be no problem.
However, Fang Zheng naturally rejected this proposal.
"Don't even think about it, President. You should know that their real purpose is not to call for fairness and justice, but to prevent us from creating a record that has never been created before and will probably never be repeated. After all, after this time, the organizing committee will definitely prevent similar things from happening again and will definitely change the rules. In this way, things like winning a Grand Slam may never happen again in the future."
"But Kasugano-kun, your performance is already quite outstanding..."
“This is different.”
In response to Mayumi Nanakusa's question, Fang Zheng waved his hand.
"Listen carefully, President. Only things written down in black and white will be recognized by others. In this way, even after a few years, a dozen years, or even decades, they will have to face this reality. But it will be different if I give up. Of course, the audience this year may understand, but what about a few years later? The newcomers behind me will not think that this is because of how strong I am, but simply the result of good luck. Therefore, we must win fairly and make ourselves and our successors speechless!"
Faced with Fang Zheng's rebuttal, Nanakusa Mayumi was also speechless and could only go back and apologize.
After getting the answer, the organizing committee of the competition had no choice but to hold an impromptu meeting to study the matter. The final decision was that starting from the next Nine Schools Tournament, the number of competitions that contestants can participate in will be limited, and contestants who have participated in the regular season will not be allowed to participate in similar competitions in the rookie competition.
As for this session...well, you all just have to accept it.
After receiving the final decision from the main committee, other universities immediately held meetings to prepare countermeasures.
The Third High School is no exception.
"I never thought that such a monster would appear in No. 1 High School this year."
At the conference table, the contestants from the Third High School looked very frustrated. You know, before the game, the Third High School was regarded as the only hope to challenge the First High School. Now it seems... there is no hope at all.
“But we can’t let this discourage us.”
And at this moment, Ichijo Masahiro spoke.
"Everyone, it's true that Kasugano's strength is beyond imagination and almost impossible to defeat, but we are not completely without a goal to fight."
"Anything else? With such a monster here, Yigao has already secured the championship."
After hearing what Ichijo Masahiro said, the others asked in confusion, while Ichijo Masahiro shook his head.
"No, we have another goal - that is to stop Yigao from winning the Grand Slam!"
"……ah!!!!"
After hearing what Yitiao Jianghui said, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they reacted immediately. Because Fang Zheng was so popular before, they all focused their attention on this monster, so many people overlooked a problem, that is - Nanakusa Mayumi, who also won the championship of the previous two days with Fang Zheng, is also a contestant of the first high school!
Indeed, Fang Zheng was extremely awesome, and no one in this competition could match him, but he was a man after all, and could only participate in the men's competition, and he could not intervene in the women's competition. So other schools could still compete in this regard, but no matter what, they could not let No. 1 High School really sweep all the top spots in this nine-school competition!
If this is true, then the other eight schools might as well just close down and disband!!
Thinking of this, the contestant who had originally planned to lie down and let the game go became nervous again. Indeed, failure is not scary. Yigao has won seven championships. Its strength is there. Losing to it once or twice is not shameful.
But if No. 1 High School wins the championship in all events, it will not be a matter of shame for these contestants. Instead, it will be that No. 1 High School has truly beaten the other eight schools. In that case, not only will they lose face, but their self-esteem and honor will also be completely shattered.
“So we’re going to focus on the women’s game next?”
"But even in the women's competition, at the moment, Yigao's level is still far above this."
At this point, everyone was dejected. Indeed, Nanakusa Mayumi was beyond words. The next players to compete in the "Surfboard Race" were Watanabe Mari and Chiyoda Kanon, who were also very tough opponents. This was why Ichigo was the favorite to win the championship before the game started. Even without Fangzheng's bug, it was quite possible for Ichigo to win the championship with the current players.
"It seems that the only option left is to compete in the rookie competition... ah!!!"
At this point, suddenly, one of the contestants shouted as if he had thought of something.
"Oh yeah, now that I remember it, that monster seemed to be the technician in charge of the CAD for the first-year girls' competition!"
"ah!!!"
Hearing this, the others immediately recalled that they first heard of Fang Zheng's name because he not only signed up for the regular season and the rookie competition, but was also responsible for the technical adjustment of CAD? Because it was so rare for someone to hold multiple positions at the same time, he was brought up for explanation. Otherwise, people wouldn't have paid so much attention to Fang Zheng in the beginning.
At that time, I just thought that this person was just asking for trouble because he had nothing to do, but now looking at the current situation...
"...That monster, could it be that he had already anticipated this?"
Although it is summer now, the contestants in the conference room feel a chill running up their backs.
"No way. Just having powerful magic skills is abnormal enough. It's impossible for him to be equally good at CAD optimization design..."
Everyone looked at each other, and their voices unconsciously lowered a lot. It was more like they were trying to convince themselves than refuting.
After all, if Fang Zheng's CAD technical ability was only half of his current strength... it would probably be unimaginably difficult for the female players.
Looking at the timid looks of the people in front of him, Ichijo Masahiro frowned and remained silent.
For Masaki Ichijo, this is not just a game. As the eldest son of the Ichijo family, one of the "Ten Master Clans" of the highest class in the Japanese magic world, Masaki Ichijo has even been recognized to be the leader of the new generation of the Ten Master Clans. This competition is also a way for him to show his strength and gain reputation.
To put it bluntly, he came here just to gild himself so that he could ascend to the throne of the ruler of the Ten Master Clans in the future.
But what Ichijo Masahiro didn't expect was that he would have such an unimaginable opponent halfway through. Until now, he couldn't forget the look the other party gave him at the banquet. It wasn't hatred, contempt or hostility, on the contrary, it was like a cat looking at a mouse, pure racial oppression.
Under his gaze, Ichijo Masahiro even felt that he dared not even breathe. He almost felt an unprecedented fear.
Who is that man?
Although we asked people to investigate, the information we got was very simple and seemed to have no problems.
However, this is the biggest problem. Such talents would definitely not appear suddenly. As the leaders of the magician world, the Ten Master Clans will definitely not turn a blind eye to such talents.
But none of this matters. The biggest question now is - is there really a way for me to beat him?
For Masahiro Ichijo, this was a question he had no way of finding an answer to.
